Hundreds of thousands of brand new cars are sold in the UK each year (according to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, there have been just over 1.2 million new cars sold in the UK during the first half of 2010) and there’s a substantial amount more used car sales, with data from Experian showing there were 6,798,864 used cars sold in 2009.

If the time has come for you to buy a car, whether it’s a new one or a second hand one, chances are your emotions are mixed.

On one hand, it can be extremely exciting, spending days travelling around car dealerships, taking different cars for test drives and seeing which seem to suit you best.

On the other hand, however, it can be nothing short of a shopping nightmare. Prices fluctuate massively, you’re likely to encounter a few pushy salespeople and even after days of searching you may not have found the car suitable for you.

Fortunately, there is a way to make the car buying experience an almost completely enjoyable one, as one of the main reasons why buying a car can be unsavoury at times is that people aren’t prepared because they don’t know where to start.

Therefore, if you can work out where to start, you should be able to remove any of the negative parts of the car buying process.

Depending on where you start depends on what preparations you’ve already made, which are sometimes done without you even knowing it.

For example, if you have inherited some money or won some money on the lottery and want to spend it all on a car, you already have one of the most complicated parts of the car buying process completed, as you know how much you can spend.

Similarly, if you’ve traditionally owned one type of car – Jeeps, for example – and are planning to do nothing but upgrade with this manufacturer, then by knowing you’re going to head straight to a Jeep dealer removes the need to research a wide selection of cars.

If you haven’t already done either of these, then working out your budget and what type of car you want – even just broadly – are both great places Tadacip to start. By knowing how much money you can spend on a car and by having done your research so you know what type of car it is you want, you can immediately remove certain cars or manufacturers from your search, focusing your attention on one part of the market.

From here, well, the car buying world is your oyster.

You can decide to go down the traditional route, driving around several garages, sitting in and test driving every car that is suitable to you or you can fire up your computer and have a look online – whether it’s official Jeep dealers or used car auctions, there’s a whole host of different places to look.

Buying a new car need not be a process which causes you a headache. Chances are it will be if you don’t plan properly, however, therefore if you know where you should start, you can remove a lot of the potential problems and pains before you even start looking for your new car.
